Full Issue:

In response to a report from Russia, the author highlights three major points to be
considered to understand the global situation today: 1) the trend since the death
of President Kennedy toward a globalized form of physical and financial decline internationally;
2) the rise of globalization, and its forceful enslavement of nations; and 3) the
critical consideration: the embedded belief of the majority of people today in universal
entropy. This belief is opposed to the reality that both human economies and the human
species develop anti-entropically. As an appendix to his report, LaRouche includes
a discussion of his Triple Curve forecast, distinguishing the three curves of a monetary
economy, with the two curves of a credit economy.

International

Lyndon LaRouche termed the Oct. 13 agreements between Russia and China a significant,
smart move in the setting of the global systemic economic crisis, because these agreements
mean that China’s U.S. dollar reserves are now worth something real, despite the fall
of the dollar, because China is investing its dollars in infrastructure and other
physical production.

LaRouche said that the significance of the V.I. Vernadsky State Geological Museum
today lies in the need to return the postponed scientific questions of physical economy
to the head of the agenda, “both for life on our planet itself, and the broader issues
of the conditions of life bearing on human life, and life itself, in nearby regions
of our Solar system.”

National

President Obama’s popularity has undergone a more dramatic decline, during these last
nine months, than any U.S. President in more than 50 years. Voter distrust that Washington
has their interests at heart is increasing, as the physical economy ratchets downward
since the Sept. 30 end of the fiscal year.

Economics

Production of the machine tools in America is all but dead, as sales of these and
related technologies plunged 68% in the first eight months of this year. That means
not only layoffs, but the decimation of a skilled labor force.

Dr. Natalia Vitrenko and Vladimir Marchenko, national chairwoman and deputy chairman
of the Progressive Socialist Party of Ukraine, and signers of Helga Zepp-LaRouche’s
“Call for a New Bretton Woods” more than ten years ago, gave a seminar in Wiesbaden,
Germany, to members and friends of the LaRouche movement.
